at Henry Art Gallery, University of Washington
Seattle, WA, USA

The Henry presents an exhibition of black walnut sculptures by American artist Paul McCarthy (born 1945).

For the first time in Germany the Kunsthalle in Munich is presenting a comprehensive retrospective by the Spanish artist, Joaquín Sorolla (1863–1923).

Body, Psyche, and Taboo: Vienna Actionism & Early Vienna Modernism
at Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig (Ludwig Foundation)
Vienna, Austria
Mar 04, 2016 - May 16, 2016

In 2016 mumok is taking a fresh look at one of the mainstays of our own collection—Vienna Actionism—by relating this to equally radical positions taken by some of its Austrian predecessors. Many Austrian museums and collections are supporting this project with generous loans of works, thus making it possible to create an encounter between artists from the early twentieth century and Vienna Actionists. The range of works on show includes iconic pieces of classical modernist art from our close neighbor, the Leopold Museum, and magnificent support with works from the Albertina, the Belvedere, the Austrian Theater Museum, which is loaning Gustav Klimt’s famous work Nuda Veritas (1899), and significant additional works from the Vienna Museum, the Kokoschka Archive at the Vienna University of Applied Arts, the Friedrichhof Collection, and further loans from private collect read more...

Silent Revolt: Norwegian Process Art and Conceptual Art in the 70's and 80'
at The Museum of Contemporary Art, Oslo
Oslo, Norway
Mar 04, 2016 - Sep 18, 2016

Towards the end of the 1960s, conceptual art emerged as a new radical art movement on the international art scene. With a critical approach to the art object, and the institutions, conventions and theories of art, this new movement challenged the prevailing notions of what a work of art could be. In the writing of Norwegian art history, conceptual art has been conspicuously missing, however, and the movement has never been presented in exhibitions of any great scope. read more...

Rokni Haerizadeh: Reign of Winter
at Yallay Gallery
Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Mar 05, 2016 - Apr 02, 2016

Yallay Gallery’s forthcoming exhibition on the work of Iranian artist Rokni Haerizadeh will be centered on the singular rotoscope video Reign of Winter (2013). The animated film—based on the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton—is made from thousands of images stills downloaded from the internet and over-painted by hand in a demonstration of extraordinary fantasy. The rotoscope video—based on thousands of hand-painted images—allowed Haerizadeh to create a new medium which he calls moving paintings: "A painting is usually received by the viewer and by the critic as a fixed and static object, with the entire process of generating the work far removed from the final piece. read more...
